I'm not looking for that, but the question prompts me to ask, has anyone
here had success using CUPS under Android? I've seen a few such packages
available and installed them, but was never able to "add a printer" much
less print.

I've currently got a Android 6.x device. I suspect the Android version
was the stumbling block.

For my purposes, a printing solution that works from a Termux shell
(and printing to an IP address or local hostname) would be an acceptable
partial answer.
